To me this vase has the perfect scale, shape and patterns. Dutch designer Hella Jongerius is the mind behind the piece. The PS Jonsberg Vase debuted in 2005 at IKEA but is no longer in production. Here are her own words about the designing process:"I wanted to make a product that is uniform in shape, but that reveals that it must have been made in a traditional workshop because there is no industrial production technique for this particular ceramic process." "This was possible because Ikea has manufacturing companies in China.

Jongerius is known for her attention to detail; almost all of her objects involve handwork in the production process. When IKEA approached her about designing a mass-produced item on a giant scale, Jongerius wanted to integrate her love of handwork with the accessibility of an international chain store.

one shape, four colours, four patterns.

It is the first very large edition that Jongerius ever produced.This is her. :)
